DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2018.09.019
Abstract: Abstract Climate change is one of the strongest biodiversity threats. Worse still, the impact of multiple anthropic stressors on species dynamics could complicate adaptation to temperature increase. International conservation policies aim to protect ecosystems against… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2020.106330
Abstract: Abstract Better understanding of the mechanisms structuring ecological communities is not only a long-term theoretical pursuit in ecology but also critical for biodiversity conservation. Here, we used two complementary approaches (β-diversity partitioning, and phylogenetic and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ddi.12919
Abstract: Aim: Although assembly processes have been studied in a wide range of taxa, determining assembly rules remains controversial, particularly in assemblages consisted of species with strong dispersal capacities. Moreover, few studies focused on communities in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/oik.05903
Abstract: Waterbird communities are prone to strong temporal changes both seasonally and annually, but little is known about how this affects their functional diversity and community assembly. Detecting temporal trends in taxonomic and functional diversity within… read more here.
